National foreword

This British Standard reproduces verbatim ISO 14520-9:2006 and implements


it as the UK national standard. It supersedes BS ISO 14520-9:2000 which is
withdrawn.
The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted by Technical Committee
FSH/18, Fixed firefighting equipment, to Subcommittee FSH/18/6, Gaseous
extinguishing media and systems, which has the responsibility to:

— aid enquirers to understand the text;

— present to the responsible international/European committee any


enquiries on the interpretation, or proposals for change, and keep
UK interests informed;
— monitor related international and European developments and
promulgate them in the UK.

A list of organizations represented on this subcommittee can be obtained on


request to its secretary.

Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 14520-9 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 21, Equipment for fire protection and fire fighting,
Subcommittee SC 8, Gaseous media and firefighting systems using gas.

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 14520-9:2000), which has been technically
revised.

ISO 14520 consists of the following parts, under the general title Gaseous fire-extinguishing systems —
Physical properties and system design :

— Part 1: General requirements

— Part 2: CF3 I extinguishant

Parts 3, 4 and 7, which dealt with FC-2-1-8, FC-3-1-10 and HCFC 124 extinguishants, respectively, have been
withdrawn, as these types are no longer manufactured.

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 14520-1 apply.

4 Characteristics and uses

4.1 General

Extinguishant HFC 227ea shall comply with the specification according to Table 1.

HFC 227ea is a colourless, almost odourless, electrically non-conductive gas with a density approximately six
times that of air.

The physical properties are given in Table 2.

HFC 227ea extinguishes fires mainly by physical means, but also by some chemical means.

The extinguishment values for the Class B and the Surface Class A fuels are determined by testing in accordance with
ISO 14520-1:2006, Annexes B and C.

The minimum design concentration for the Class B fuel is the higher value of the heptane cup burner or room test heptane
extinguishment concentration multiplied by 1,3.

The minimum design concentration for Surface Class A fuel is the highest value of the wood crib, PMMA, PP or ABS
extinguishment concentrations multiplied by 1,3. In the absence of any of the 4 extinguishment values, the minimum design
concentration for Surface Class A shall be that of Higher Hazard Class A.

See ISO 14520-1:2006, 7.5.1.3, for guidance on Class A fuels.

The extinguishing and design concentrations for room-scale test fires are for informational purposes only. Lower and higher
extinguishing concentrations than those shown for room-scale test fires may be achieved and allowed when validated by
test reports from internationally recognized laboratories.

5 Safety of personnel

Any hazard to personnel created by the discharge of HFC 227ea shall be considered in the design of the
system.

Potential hazards can arise from the following:

a) the extinguishant itself;

b) the combustion products of the fire;

c) breakdown products of the extinguishant resulting from exposure to fire.

For minimum safety requirements, see ISO 14520-1:2006, Clause 5.

Toxicological information for HFC 227ea is given in Table 7.

6 System design

6.1 Fill density

The fill density of the container shall not exceed the values given in Tables 8 and 9 for 25 bar and 42 bar
systems, respectively.

Exceeding the maximum fill density may result in the container becoming “liquid full”, with the effect that an
extremely high rise in pressure occurs with small increases in temperature, which could adversely affect the
integrity of the container assembly.

The relationships between pressure and temperature are shown in Figures 1 and 2 for various levels of fill
density.

6.3 Extinguishant quantity

The quantity of extinguishant shall be the minimum required to achieve the design concentration within the
hazard volume at the minimum expected temperature, determined using Table 3 and the method according to
ISO 14520-1:2006, 7.6.

The design concentrations shall be those specified for relevant hazards in Table 4, including a 1,3 safety factor
on the extinguishing concentration. Consideration should be given to increasing this factor for particular
hazards, while seeking advice from the relevant authority.
